Comment #106 on issue 2658 by [email protected]: wrong stem rendering
(inconsistent thickness)
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2658
There is no "even better". We've been through that already. Of course,
the rounding of stems is discernible in print, and the PDF was not intended
to be "preview-only".
Cutting down on the file size would be possible if stems passed the
information "never mind the rounding on the bottom end, it disappears in
the notehead anyway" or "never mind the rounding on the bottom end, it's
masked by a beam".
I mean, beamed notes make up a fair amount of notes, and usually both ends
of the stems are hidden.
Of course, with beamed notes we really _also_ want the special case "this
note stem starts/ends a beam of slope x" since then we can draw the beams
just into half the stem's width and get rid of the rasterizing mismatch of
a full beam with a strokeadjust-thinned stem.
Rasterizing is a nightmare.
